$400 million? Any idea how many people live in Gaza? How much is that per head?
1,400,000 million people live in Gaza. $400,000,000 is more than $285,000 per head.
How many Americans does the government need to take from in order to do this?
I’m finding now that there is much larger dollars in play here. A poster up thread referenced a GAO letter to House & Senate Appropriations Committees re: Foreign Assistance: U.S. Assistance to the West Bank and Gaza.
Nineteen pages and my head spins reading it. $2.9 Billion overall. The $400.4 million doled out today was mentioned in this letter which is dated May 14, 2010. Guess Obama wanted to hand this over ASAP!
Damn I wish we could put on a muzzle on this bunch!
